- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 65-year-old man with a history of lethargy, weakness, and epigastric discomfort who was diagnosed with duodenal squamous cell carcinoma. After four years of wellness, he developed a rare prostatic carcinoma and died shortly after his diagnosis. The article discusses a computed tomography (CT) scan of his abdomen, which revealed an invasive non-keratinizing squamous carcinoma, his treatment regimen, and disease pathology.
